The best way to see if we are a good fit for your child’s needs is to visit our center, meet the instructors, and try out our program. This is not an observational session, but a full Mathnasium instructional session. Using our material, we will show your 2nd through 8th grader what their future visits to our center will be like. This free visit is held before an assessment visit so your family can experience our center.

My child already excels in math. Will Mathnasium address their needs?

Absolutely. Since Mathnasium is customized to the needs of each individual student, we can help advanced students stay engaged and stimulated by introducing them to more challenging math topics. More importantly, we can also help your child to develop even stronger numeric fluency and critical thinking skills, which are essential for continued success in math.

Why do children struggle with math?

Have you ever watched a foreign movie without subtitles? It can be confusing and frustrating because you don't understand the language! If your child is missing key math skills, this is exactly how they feel in math class!

In school, they treat kids the same because it is assumed that all kids learn the same way and at the same rate. The teachers are expected to cover vast amounts of material in a short period of time. If your child doesn't get a chance to master a skill for whatever reason – there is no time to give the necessary time and attention that they need. Teachers must move quickly to stay “on schedule". As a result, we see too many kids fall behind in math.

What happens next? The class moves on! Here come multiplication facts, fractions, percentages, decimals, mixed numbers, exponents, ratios, x=?, divisibility rules, algebra, geometry, equations. It never slows down so your child can catch up! They feel overwhelmed, embarrassed, and all alone! They begin to expect and accept failure as the "new normal" and think "I'm just not good in math!". If they lose confidence in themselves we typically see all of their other grades begin to suffer.

Is it any wonder why you have to fight with them to do their homework? With many kids, it is easier for them to fight you and not do the work than to put the effort into it only to see failure again. After a while, it just doesn't seem worth the effort for them.

Will a private one-on-one tutor work?

Unfortunately, in most cases a private tutor is a temporary fix for a long term problem. Private tutors only help children "survive" tonight's homework, but they don't address underlying issues. Private tutoring is not going to be a meaningful long term solution. Your child deserves to have that long-term impact in their math education!

How is Mathnasium different?

Great Question! The very first thing we do is give your child a skills assessment. It is both a written and oral assessment so that we can get a deep understanding of not only what they know, but how they think!

We sit down with them, put them at ease, and give them an assessment that doesn't feel too easy or too hard. Most importantly, we find out HOW THEY LEARN! Then we build their trust by giving them a few ideas and strategies that they can use immediately. We use the results to build a customized learning plan that targets skill gaps and quickly shows them success. In many cases “success” in math is something they have been craving!

Does Mathnasium Really Work?

Yes! Quite well, but don't take our word for it -

Read our Parent Reviews

We get 100's of reviews that are glowing about how struggling students come alive after coming to Mathnasium. Their grades increase and their confidence skyrockets! Take a moment to read what your neighbors have to say about us.

Why is confidence in math important?

It's not just important, It's critical! Kids need to see that they can do the work so that they can feel confident! This fresh, new confidence will spill over to many other areas of your child's life. At this point you will start to see peace at home! You won't be having to fight with them to do homework. Not only will they have the confidence and the skills to attack it but they'll start bringing home better grades from school. How do we know this? Because we have seen it over and over again with hundreds of our students!

Are you doing one-on-one tutoring?

Another great question! Our instructors are not just average math tutors. We have brilliant, engaging, inspiring math experts that work one on one with your child. They make sure your child understands what to do. Then the instructor steps back and lets your child work independently to give them the time to process this new information without the pressure and stress of being watched. It also prevents a "learned helplessness" where the student feels that they need the instructor sitting in front of them all the time in order to be successful. [We can't be there for their math tests!]

Our instructors quickly come back after a minute or two to make sure they are doing the problems correctly, give them encouragement, and praise them for their efforts! If the student needs more math help we simply teach the lesson again in a different way without judgment or ridicule until they "get it." This enables your child to become a "confident, independent learner."

If this is what you want for your child - It's easy to get started!

Overall, Tyler's quiz and test scores have greatly improved. He is happy with the tutoring that he is receiving, seems more comfortable working through difficult problems, and completes his homework on time.

Kama and her staff have been instrumental in increasing our Son's math aptitude. We are 100% pleased with their learning processes, and confidently recommend them to anyone looking to receive math tutoring that gets results!

Kama and her staff are wonderful. Kama worked with our schedule and family needs and truly was concerned with the success and well being of my kids. In regards to the instruction, the kids found the lessons engaging, relevant, well-organized, & presented in a manner they could understand, recall, and use in their math classes once back at school. We saw an improvement in their grades and even an increase in their standardized assessments (SAT) scores in the area of math. The program helped build their confidence in math & we are very pleased with our experience at mathnasium.

Since my daughter has signed up she has shown so much excitement for math now. She is excited to go to the Mathnasium center and asks about going everyday. I am extremely happy that we chose to sign her up.

Mathematics are hard for some children so a nonjudgmental environment is key to learning. Mathnasium gears the learning to the child's ability so they can feel successful and begin to make progress. The child feels rewarded for learning and you begin to see real growth. [NAME REMOVED]

Mathnasium has given our daughter hope in math. She knows it is important to the world she will be entering as an adult. She knows she needs to master concepts and understand application of what she learns. Mathnasium is filling the gaps, validating knowledge she thinks she understands, and giving her knowledge tools to help her work through her assignments more efficiently. Most importantly, they provide positive reinforcement and encouragement that builds up her confidence. It is a wonderful place for our daughter to learn math. Thank-you

Kama and the staff are always kind and welcoming to the children. My son was instantly at ease there and Mathnasium days are his favorite ones of the week. Seeing his growth and change in attitude from hating math to now being excited and eager to share what he's learning is a wonderful feeling for this mama!

I am so impressed with Mathnasium and the results I've seen in such a short period of time. Jack started receiving excellent grades after only a month. Best of all, his self esteem and confidence is back and he's finally willing to try again. A friend asked him what his favorite subject in school was, and he responded math! This is huge. Thank you for making it so fun for him.

Both of my kids went from failing math at a private school to A's at the public school level - I have never in my life heard either of my kids say "math is fun!" until this past week!! Thank you so much for all you do for them!
